Yep, my wife usually steals mine and it's frustrating when the damn camera knows best! I have failed to improve on the Green button yet lol.
Great picture btw

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

That's a fantastic pic!!!! Annoyingly stained by the pointless orange date watermark ( does the MX-1 insist upon this? )
I suppose this is a magical lesson in using gut feeling/subconscious in deciding when to take a pic and letting the camera free your mind of the technical nonsense so you can be free to think about the art
Don't give up, just think less and snap more

When I get a canine photobomb its never sharp, I suspect Smeggy is right about letting the camera free.

And just to rub salt into the wound, cameras dont take great photographs, great photgraphers do that!

Been there and had it happen, not only with the camera but, fishing, cycling, jogging, cooking, golf, squash, et, etc, etc
It is the way of life, and my two daughters have now multiplied the problem x 3
